Lowered on: "STD coilover suspension" approx. 3-4inches of drop (tucking stock tires)
Rims : Axis EXE Image
Tires: Nitto extreme 555
Flush? : i'd say so.. if not.. it's pretty damm close.
Front: 20x8.5 +35 offset 225/35/20
Rear: 20x9.5 +40 offset 245/35/20
Rubbing? : Rears rubs a little (problem is solved by shaving the fender down a little) Fronts rub the plastic wheel well liner. i have yet to deal with the issue.

wheels were purchased from B2 autodesign. they were shipped to me within a week.

teaser shots... enjoy







I'll do some better pictures when the car is nice and cleaned up.





ride is exactly how it should be with a modified suspension... stiff.... I'm still young (22) and my bones and body can handle a rougher ride. in a few years, when i become "old" the car will be going back to stock height for occupational purposes.

 

Congrats on the new wheels! They looks really nice on your ride

 

Wow! You just spent a whole lot of money turning a really nice luxury vehicle into a low rider. Not bashing by any means, because I share your passion. Mine is boats. But doesn't this totally kill the wonderful ride quality of this car?

I do like the wheels.

 

They look great. Can't wait to see a full shot of the car!!

very nice ray. more pics!!!

how do you like it?

 

Was this on pimp my ride .

 

Need better pics but looks alright.

 

Doesn't do much for the ride.

 

Forgive the geezers! it's nice to see something different on the streets than the usal Is and gs with wheels. great choice!!!!

 

Actually, I wish there were more modded ES on the road.....but it is unusual for a 22 year old to buy a new ES.

 

Ooh, those early pics didn't do it justice. I am eating my words. That is sweet!

 

highschool grad gift..... i wanted something sporty that i can have fun with...but my dad got me a luxury sedan... so now im going the VIP route

 

I was also in the Macklin camp both initially AND now. Very nice!!

 

that looks good... i was wondering if people modded the ES guess they do...

 

Usually not a fan of doing this but your car looks great. Looks expensive and is not wild at all. Suggest the rear spoiler to really set it off more.
